Artisans de Genève has lifted the veil of its newest bespoke project. Entitled “AFRIKA,” the time-teller remagines a Rolex GMT-Master II 116710 in a bold and adventurous way.

“My watch takes me back to the Okonjati Wildlife Sanctuary and everything they do to protect rhinos. AFRIKA means birthplace, motherland. The perfect name for a timepiece that stands for life and freedom,” notes the client. Drawing inspiration from that, the reference is refitted with skeletonized movement, complete with a green ceramic world time bezel that features 24 different cities alongside their respective timezones.
